190 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
The primary purpose of this pilot study is to investigate a novel approach to the treatment of cognitive symptoms that persist despite prior antibiotic treatment for Lyme disease (Post treatment Lyme Disease or PTLD). Aim 1: The primary aim of this study is to assess whether the processing speed of individuals with PTLD can be enhanced by combining transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) with computer based cognitive training games. To achieve this aim, over a 4-week period, all individuals with PTLD will participate in at home adaptive cognitive training combined with either active stimulation or sham stimulation. Aim 2: To determine if treatment benefit in processing speed is sustained, the study will compare the sham and active groups 8 weeks after completion of study treatment.
This study aims to assess the treatment patterns and real-world outcomes of HR+/HER- metastatic breast cancer patients who have progressed on 1L ET + CDK4/6i and started a second line (2L) treatment within a real-world cohort in the United States Flatiron Health Database.

The goal of this observational study is to learn if participants agree to take part in the study, if the methods we are using for the study are feasible for the participants and the researchers, and to study how well two tools (tissue dielectric constant and ultrasound) measure breast edema after breast conserving surgery for breast cancer. Participants who agree to be in the study will be asked to come in for one appointment of approximately two hours. All data will be collected during this one visit. Participants will be asked to fill out two questionnaires regarding their symptoms, and one questionnaire regarding their surgical scar. The research staff will conduct a clinical examination, measure breast edema using ultrasound and tissue dielectric constant, measure arm volume with the perometer and fluid with the SOZO, and take photographs of both breasts.
This study will explore treatment patterns and clinical outcomes using the US-based Flatiron Health database to describe patients with HER2+ mBC who were previously treated with T-DXd to better characterize this population and inform internal decision making in this rapidly changing therapeutic landscape.
This clinical trial studies whether a post-treatment supportive service program can be used to help Black women breast cancer survivors in Western New York (WNY) transition into post-treatment life (survivorship). Programming for Black cancer survivors in WNY is crucially needed. Poverty and cancer have affected the region for years. The post-treatment supportive service program is delivered to Black women breast cancer survivors of WNY. It combines group support sessions and one-on-one (1:1) peer mentoring sessions. The group support sessions include traditional support groups, educational topics/lessons, activities, such as cooking lessons, celebrations, or facility tours, and guest speakers. The 1:1 peer mentoring sessions are held with a long-term breast cancer survivor mentor. The long-term breast cancer survivor mentor helps the mentee get in the practice of performing once monthly self-assessments and create plans to help improve any identified modifiable risk factors. The long-term breast cancer survivor mentor can also help connect the mentee to providers or resources as needed. A post-treatment supportive service program may help Black women breast cancer survivors in WNY transition into survivorship.
A randomized, single-site, parallel-group, prospective study of patients who are candidates for SLT, to study the effect of IOP change with Rocklatan vs artificial tears.
Lyme disease is a public health crisis in the US. It is estimated that over 400,000 cases occur every year with 10-20% of those infected going on to develop Post-Treatment Lyme disease Syndrome (PTLDS). The goal of this study is to investigate if giving Ceftriaxone every 5 days for about 6 weeks kills the organism that produces persistent Lyme infection. Enrolled participants will be randomized 1:1 receiving either pulse-dosed ceftriaxone or placebo \[dextrose (5% in water), (D5W)\], intravenously. Participants will be evaluated at each of the study visits, and then in a follow-up phase out to 12 months. They will be unblinded at 6 months and those randomized to the placebo group will be offered pulse-dosed ceftriaxone on the same schedule as those randomized to the drug group. All patients will be followed up for a total of 12 months post treatment initiation.
Mg OSTEOCRETE is a bone substitute used to fill a defect in bone caused by excision of a tumor, orthopaedic hardware that has become loosened, or a trauma-related condition. The aim of this study is to determine the amount of time it takes for bone to heal after treatment with Mg OSTEOCRETE, and to better understand the efficacy of this treatment through clinical and patient-reported outcomes.
This study will investigate the effectiveness of the Sana Pain Reliever (Sana PR) at reducing chronic pain. The Sana PR is a device comprised of one main component (Mask with Earbuds) and two ancillary components (Charger and Headband). The device is worn over the eyes (with earbuds in ears). The device pulses light at a single wavelength but various frequencies throughout a specific firmware algorithm. Through the earbuds, the device also plays different tones in conjunction with the pulses. The device has a skin contacting Heart Rate Variability (HRV) sensor built into the forehead area that measures HRV throughout the use of the device. The system runs for 15 min at a time and is not FDA approved. The trial will last a total of 14 weeks. 50 participants who have a diagnosis of Post-treatment Lyme Disease and experience chronic pain are expected to take part in this study at Mount Sinai.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if an FDA approved drug, Ceftriaxone, given intermittently, can treat people between 18 and 75 years old with a history of Lyme disease, who are still experiencing persistent or returning symptoms after they have completed treatment. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Will giving Ceftriaxone approximately every 5 days for 6 weeks be safe and well tolerated when compared to a group that receives placebo (a look-alike substance that contains no drug)? * Will giving Ceftriaxone improve symptoms? Participants will be asked to do the following: * Come to the clinic approximately every 5-6 days to receive an IV infusion of either the Ceftriaxone or placebo. * Answer questions about their level of tiredness, body pain, general health and physical ability, sleep, anxiety, depression and any suicidal thoughts. * Give blood so we can make sure your body is handling the drug okay or to help us learn more about how the drug is affecting the persistent Lyme disease symptoms.
This research aims to evaluate of the risk of nerve damage following the administration of articaine 4% and lidocaine 2% for Inferior Alveolar nerve Block (IANB). A Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial will be conducted where the patient will be randomly assigned to one the two groups; articaine 4% and Lidocaine 2%. The type of LA will be concealed to the operator, investigators and assessors. The patients will be monitored for any aigns of nerve parathesia for 3 months after the procedure.
The purpose of this study is to assess the impact of this MR-guided radiotherapy on tumor control of the dominant intraprostatic lesion among patients with intermediate risk prostate cancer. This study of Radiotherapy to the Prostate and Dominant Lesion Using Ultra-Hypofractionated, MR-adaptive Radiation Therapy aims to evaluate tumor control after definitive ultra-hypofractionated external beam radiation therapy (including a simultaneously delivered high-dose boost to a dominant lesion as detected on prostate magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)) in patients with intermediate-risk prostate cancer. This will incorporate the use of multiparametric MRI for target segmentation and the use of the MR-linac with adaptive radiation planning to treat the prostate gland, incorporating a dose boost to the dominant intraprostatic lesion (DIL) that is visible on T2-weighted and diffusion-weighted imaging and de-escalation of dose to the remainder of the prostate.
This will be a pilot multi-arm clinical trial investigating the feasibility of Lumbrokinase (LK) as an intervention in three clinical cohorts: * Long Covid (LC) * Post-treatment Lyme disease syndrome (PTLDS) * Myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS)

This study evaluates the effect of bladder cancer treatment on quality of life.
This is an observational study in which only data will be collected from adults with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma. These adults should be prescribed a different treatment after treatment with atezolizumab and bevacizumab, or another similar combination of drugs, by their doctors. Unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (uHCC) is a type of liver cancer that cannot be treated with surgery. In the past, sorafenib was the only approved first-line anti-cancer drug for people with uHCC. Regorafenib and other drugs were approved as second-line treatments for uHCC if a person could not take sorafenib or it stopped working for them. Lately, another first-line (1L) treatment called immuno-oncology (IO) immune checkpoint inhibitor combination (1L-IO combo), like atezolizumab with bevacizumab (AB), has become the preferred choice of treatment. This is because of the meaningful impact on patient survival. 1L-IO combo are drugs that help the body's defense system recognize and kill cancer cells. Since the other treatments were previously approved for use following sorafenib, the best order to take these treatments in following an 1L-IO combo is unknown. To better understand and determine this order, more knowledge is needed about how well different treatments work in participants with uHCC who have been treated with AB or another 1L-IO combo. The main purpose of this study is to learn more about how well different treatments work when given after first-line treatment with AB or another approved 1L-IO combo. To do this, researchers will collect data on how long the participants live (also called overall survival) from the start of any treatment given after the first-line treatment. In addition, researchers will also collect the following information to learn more about the participants who will be given a different treatment after the 1L-IO combo: * characteristics including age, sex, and race, and signs and symptoms of the participants over the duration of their first-line treatment * the length of time from the first to the last dose (also called duration of therapy) of the treatments given after the 1L-IO combo * the length of time until a participant's cancer worsens, or they die (also called progression free survival) from the start of the treatments given after the 1L-IO combo * the number of participants whose tumor completely disappears or shrinks (also called overall tumor response) after taking the treatments given after the 1L-IO combo * the sequence of treatments given after the 1L-IO combo Data will be collected from September 2023 to December 2026 and cover a period of around 3 years. The data will be collected using medical records or by interviewing the participants during their routine visits to the doctor. Researchers will observe participants from the start of the treatment given after the 1L-IO combo until the end of their participation in the study. In this study, only data from routine care will be collected. No visits or tests are required as part of this study.
The purpose of this research study is to evaluate the outcomes of two standard of care group exercise regimens to increase muscle mass in women who have been treated with breast cancer.
This protocol seeks to analyze patient outcomes of the standard of care, monitored group exercise regimen of high-load resistance training and functional exercises with compound movements under close supervision on individuals who have been treated for cancer.
To compare the effects of a pneumococcal vaccine called PCV20 when given as a single dose versus a boosted regimen to patients who previously received anti-CD20 therapy as treatment for B cell lymphoma.
This is an in-clinic, single arm, open-label study assessing tachyphylaxis, tolerance, and withdrawal following repeated doses of Igalmi in adult males and females with agitation associated with schizophrenia or bipolar disorder.
This clinical trial tests proton beam radiation therapy in patients with non-small cell lung cancer who have undergone surgical resection and have lymph nodes involving the middle of the chest. Proton therapy is a type of radiation treatment that kills cancer cells while avoiding surrounding healthy tissue. Proton beam therapy is sometimes used after cancer surgery to reduce the risk of cancer recurrence (coming back). Giving proton beam radiation therapy may work better than conventional radiation treatment after surgery in patients with non-small cell lung cancer.
This protocol seeks to analyze patient outcomes of the standard of care, monitored group exercise regimen of high-load resistance training and functional exercises with compound movements in conjunction with a nutrition regimen focused on food quality under close supervision on women who have been treated for breast cancer.
This is an open label, multi-center, Phase 1/2 study evaluating the safety, tolerability, PK, PD, and preliminary efficacy (antitumor activity) of BBT-207. It will consist of 3 parts; dose escalation, recommended phase 2 dose selection, and dose expansion.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn how a group resistance training plan can improve body mobility and strength in female breast cancer patients who have completed their breast cancer treatment. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Is resistance training feasible following breast cancer treatment * Can it improve the body's mobility and strength lost as a result of the breast cancer treatment * can it improve the body's composition (for example muscle mass) * can resistance training increase one's activity level and help prevent weight gain, perhaps, lowering the risk of cancer recurrence. Participants will attend a group resistance training exercise group program, 3-4 times per week, under close supervision with monitoring a participant's ability to safely and effectively complete the program. The exercises include: lunges, squats and dead lifts.
This study assesses how blood cell growth patterns (clonal hematopoiesis), relates to heart health or cardiovascular disease (CVD) after treatment in patients with Hodgkin lymphoma. In some patients, cancer treatment at a young age may lead to later complications, including problems with heart health. Checking for blood cell growth patterns called therapy-related clonal hematopoiesis (t-CH) can help predict who might be at risk for heart health problems after Hodgkin lymphoma treatment. If doctors know who may be at greater risk for developing later heart complications, then they can more closely monitor those patients to prevent or detect heart complications early.
This study attempts to learn more about the health of persons with Down syndrome after treatment for acute leukemia. Children with Down syndrome are at increased risk for side effects during treatment for acute leukemia, but it is unclear of their risk for long-term effects of cancer treatment. By learning more about the factors that may contribute to chronic health conditions and long-term effects after treatment for leukemia in persons with Down syndrome, clinical practice guidelines for survivorship care can be developed to help improve their quality-of-life.
This is a multi-center, non-randomized, open label study. Subjects will be enrolled if they are deemed eligible given the inclusion criteria. Subjects who meet all inclusion criteria and none of the exclusion criteria will be entered into the study. Subjects will be exposed to non-radioactive 13C-Urea with citric acid, and may submit a stool sample or undergo endoscopy for Rapid Urease Test and Histology samples. Center(s) will house a PyloPlus UBT Analyzer to document results. PyloPlus Analyzer results shall remain blinded to the investigator and treating physician. No patient management decisions should be made based on the investigational PyloPlus UBT System. Treating physician will either prescribe a H. pylori Stool Antigen Test through P4 Diagnostics, along with another Urea Breath Test using Breath ID, or patient will undergo Endoscopy to provide a composite reference method consisting of Rapid Urease Test and Histology. These will act as the comparators to the PyloPlus Urea Breath Test System.
This study is an observational study of blood and tissue biomarkers. Investigators plan to evaluate the accuracy of lung cancer biomarkers found in the blood in determining if a lung nodule is cancer or benign. Investigators also plan to examine another biomarker found in the tumor tissue to identify participants after lung cancer surgery who have a high risk for recurrent cancer. Finally, investigators plan to determine if one of the blood-based biomarkers can be used to detect any late cancer recurrence.
This is a single-arm, open-label study that will examine the effect of abrocitinib in subjects with atopic dermatitis.
